The Hawks waived Toppin (shoulder) on Monday, Michael Scotto of USA Today reports.
EDGE Analysis
Toppin was already set to miss the remainder of the season after he underwent surgery last Monday to repair a torn labrum last Monday. The transaction frees up a two-way roster spot for the Hawks.

The Hawks announced that Toppin underwent season-ending right shoulder surgery Monday.
EDGE Analysis
The procedure was done to repair a torn labrum in Toppin's right shoulder that he sustained while playing for the G League's College Park Skyhawks in late November. The third-year forward signed a one-year, two-way contract with the Hawks this past summer, so it remains to be seen if Atlanta will be interested in retaining Toppin during free agency in the 2026 offseason. While he saw very little action with the parent club this season, the 25-year-old forward averaged 18.0 points, 10.4 rebounds, 3.2 assists, 1.0 steals and 0.8 blocks in 31.0 minutes per contest across five G League outings.

Toppin (shoulder) is out for Saturday's game versus the Wizards, Brad Rowland of the Locked On Podcast Network reports.
EDGE Analysis
Saturday will be the sixth straight game on the inactive list for Toppin, and the Hawks haven't released any updates about his recovery, so he should be viewed as week-to-week moving forward. The two-way player is not a consistent part of the Hawks' rotation, so he can safely remain on the waiver wire in all redraft leagues.

Toppin (shoulder) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Nuggets.
EDGE Analysis
Toppin will miss his fourth consecutive contest due to a right shoulder sprain. The forward has appeared in just five games for the Hawks this season, logging an average of 3.4 minutes played, so his absence will not significantly impact Atlanta's rotation.

Toppin (shoulder) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Clippers, Brad Rowland of the Locked On Podcast Network reports.
EDGE Analysis
Toppin will miss his third consecutive contest due to a right shoulder sprain. He has appeared in just five games for the parent club this season, so the two-way player's absence shouldn't cause any significant waves in Atlanta's rotation.

Toppin (shoulder) is out for Monday's game against the Pistons, Brad Rowland of the Locked On Podcast Network reports.
EDGE Analysis
A right shoulder sprain is keeping Toppin from playing Monday. He's averaged 3.4 minutes per game over five appearances in Atlanta this year, so Toppin's absence shouldn't have a noticeable impact on the team's rotation.

The Hawks recalled Toppin from the G League's College Park Skyhawks on Sunday, Brad Rowland of the Locked On Podcast Network reports. However, he won't play in Sunday's game against the 76ers due to a right shoulder sprain, per Rowland.
EDGE Analysis
Toppin posted 18 points (6-10 FG, 1-1 3Pt, 2-2 FT), nine rebounds, two assists, one steal and one block across 23 minutes in College Park's 113-108 G League win over the Delaware Blue Coats on Saturday. However, he sustained a right shoulder injury in the win. His next opportunity to play for the parent club will come Monday against the Pistons.

Toppin closed Tuesday's 132-113 loss to the Wizards with two points (1-2 FG) across seven minutes.
EDGE Analysis
Toppin logged a season-high seven minutes, cracking the rotation for just the fifth time this season. All five of his appearances have come during garbage time, making him a non-factor in all fantasy formats.

The Hawks recalled Toppin from the G League's College Park Skyhawks on Tuesday.
EDGE Analysis
The two-way player will join Atlanta ahead of Tuesday's game against the Pistons to provide some extra reinforcement in the frontcourt with Onyeka Okongwu (knee), Kristaps Porzingis (knee) and Zaccharie Risacher (hip) all listed as questionable for the contest. Even if all three players sit out, Toppin isn't guaranteed to be included in head coach Quin Snyder's rotation.

The Hawks recalled Toppin from the G League's College Park Skyhawks on Wednesday.
EDGE Analysis
Toppin will presumably take part in practice with the Hawks over the next couple of days, though it's unclear if he'll remain with the parent club for its next game Friday against the Raptors. The third-year forward is on a two-way deal with Atlanta and is likely to see the bulk of his playing time with College Park in 2025-26.
